I loved studying much more than sport. So, yeah it kinda hits me weirdly and I'm on click more with the school. (with all the intense studying while dabbling with school organizations as well as internship)
I also got opportunities to test my mettle and wits in a brain battle championship. Got all my trophies (1st champion city-level achievements at high school). Yet my college life (at least the undergraduate one) was a hot mess lol xD.
Yeah, so, high school filled all the blanks for me. I got acquainted with foreigners from faraway land (made some girl friends too, she was very pretty like an idol) from several foreign study exchanges. The male students were also hot and one was very tall and handsome lol. (having a tall blond boyfriend/pretty blond girlfriend was considered a trophy prize back then). Got his mail (kinda yahoo mail or msn mail at that time) but we lost contact when he returned back to his home country (IMG:[

I legit don't think I studied a single time before college. As in, never even opened a textbook assigned for class or did homework once. If something wasn't 100% mandatory like some club activity or job fair or whatever, I'd skip it. Often times I'd skip even the stuff that was supposed to be mandatory as soon as I figured out it didn't actually stop me from passing classes. Still had decent grades though, better than I needed when the only thing I cared about was passing and interacting as little as possible with the whole "school system" and staff. Basically an attitude of "I won't cause any trouble as long as you leave me be." Never even crossed my mind to think of school as an opportunity to test myself or whatever, it was just a chore I had to get over with like washing dishes.
Unfortunately in college you have to do actual work to pass classes. Can't just show up, half way listen and pass the test simply based on the lectures, which worked great in high school.
